In todays assignment everyone entered their addresses into a document where we shared our email addresses and then copied that document into a program that made a map of where everyone lives. The program that we copied the document into was called Batchgeo, this program then gave us our google map with everyones location. Here is a link to the Google Map. which is also posted below.
Todays assignment applies to teaching standard
3a. demonstrate fluency in technology systems and the transfer of current knowledge to new technologies and situations.
If I taught this to my students they would be able to apply this to everyday uses in finding locations of the many different places they want to go. It also allows them to feel like they know where they are going even if they have never been there before. I could use this in one of my future math classes by having the students calculate the distances from different cities then showing them on this map just how far away the cities are from each other.
